213Hoops: The Lob, The Jam, The Podcast

Rob and Shap are back with a new episode of The Lob The Jam The Podcast with special guest Joey Linn, of 213Hoops and Twitter fame. The guys discuss the situation in the country right now and how that might impact both their enjoyment of the NBA and the mentality of players at the moment before diving into the imminent return of NBA basketball. The gang go over the Clippers schedule, debate the me...

We are still in a Clippers-less and NBA-less world, which leaves plenty of time to reminisce on the past. Who better to explore said history than Steve Perrin, the founder of Clips Nation and the Clippers blogosphere in general? Clipper Steve joins 213 Hoops editor-in-chief Lucas Hann to discuss the Clippers on the ESPN top 100 list, the history of the Buffalo Braves and San Diego Clippers, and th...

Who knows when the league returns at this point, but Rob and Shap are feeling nostalgic, and there is plenty of older basketball to watch. Remember that legendary 2015 Spurs series? We certainly do, so the guys rewatched Game 7 and gave their thoughts about it. Chris Paul's hamstring game. Peak Blake Griffin. A thin but determined supporting cast. Future Clipper Kawhi Leonard. The guys are here to...

The NBA season might still be on hiatus, but The Lob the Jam the Pod is back with special guest Lucas Hann. The fellas discuss what they think the NBA might do to respond to the Coronavirus crisis, and how that response might effect the Clippers season. They also chat about what they will remember about this Clippers team if the season is cancelled, as well as whether their thoughts on any of the...

The 2020 NBA season is on hold, but Same Old Clippers marches on! Rob and Louis return to discuss what has happened in the intervening weeks - namely, the spread of Coronavirus from a potential threat to a planet-wide pandemic that has changed day to day life around the globe, and shut down the NBA indefinitely. The guys lay out what they think might come next, and whether the season will resume a...

The Clippers went through some rough times, but then Patrick Beverley and Paul George came back and for some reason things look better. The squad had one of their most impressive wins of the season with a huge blowout against the Nuggets at home on Friday, and have looked much fresher since being whole again. The guys talk about recent games and their reactions to new additions in Reggie Jackson a...

The All Star Break is here, so it's time to take a deep breath and evaluate the Clippers and the NBA at large with 2/3 of the season gone. Rob and Louis first of all talk about the 2020 NBA All Star Game and its associated events, and discuss whether the game and which players excel in it really means anything. They then move on to the Clippers, who lost three of their last four games before the b...

Well, where there's smoke, there's fire. The Clippers have been linked to Marcus Morris Sr. since last summer and finally got their guy, snuffing out a Lakers bid in the process. Rob and Shap have been vocal about Morris, but has their tune changed with a resounding blowout in Cleveland? The Clips also had an embarrassing loss in Minneapolis, and a handful of games since the last time the guys tal...

The 2020 NBA Trade Deadline is just 30 hours away, and rumors are flying hot and heavy. Lucas Hann and Mike Jaglin are back for the third time to discuss the latest Clippers rumors, debate the necessity of a trade, and select their favorite potential targets. The Clippers seem likely to make a move, and Lucas and Jag predict what might occur in the last edition of the special Trade Deadline editio...

The Clippers haven't played in a little bit, so now's the perfect time to discuss some trades! The NBA has been super quiet on the trade front this season, and this deadline appears to be super quiet, but that won't prevent Lucas and Jag from breaking down some top Clippers trade targets on part two of the trade deadline edition of TLTJTP! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adcho...

Kawhi Leonard keeps on chugging along, even as the the basketball world mourns the passing of NBA legend Kobe Bryant. Rob and Shap start the pod by discussing Kobe, his legacy, and what he meant to Los Angeles and a generation of basketball fans. The guys then shift to the Clippers, who had two of their more impressive wins this season in Miami and in Dallas without Paul George but also one of the...

The Clippers had one of their worst losses of the season to the Hawks on Wednesday night, but Louis and Rob discuss why they aren't too worried about it. They then delve into the recent article dropped on the Athletic regarding tension in the Clippers locker room, and give their opinions on potential troubles and how real they might be. The guys turn to a related issue, which is press-player relat...

The first episode of TLTJTP without Rob or Shap present is here, instead featuring Lucas Hann and Mike Jaglin of Clip Fix for a special trade deadline edition of the pod. The guys discuss the Clippers outlook entering the trade deadline, and break down what the Clippers might need to compete for an NBA championship. They then break down a host of potential trade candidates and determine which migh...

The Clippers have felt a bit up and down over the past few weeks, but there's some hope that they're picking up momentum heading into a road trip this week with a huge Laker matchup looming. Lucas Hann joins Rob and Shap to talk about this last batch of games, most recently a nice W in New Orleans against an improving Pelicans team. The guys also talk about Kawhi Leonard's recent torrid play and t...

The Clippers have lost twice recently, which means it's time for another episode of Same Old Clippers! Rob and Louis are joined by their second guest, Keith Parish of Fastbreak Breakfast and Grits and Grinds, to discuss what exactly happened in the Clippers' atrocious loss to the Grizzlies on Saturday. Keith makes the case for the Grizzlies as a solid team, one not necessarily worthy of being labe...

Well, that week was mostly not fun, but the Clips still ended up with a winning record. The Clippers have been inconsistent over the past few weeks, but finally have their roster intact and maybe have some time to get a few full practices in. They're fresh off an escape win against the Knicks (?), and a huge blowout loss to the Griz (?!?) the day before, and had some very uninspired late play agai...

The Clippers are still really good, and the last week caught some of their best strengths as well as their flaws. In the midst of all of that, the team also lost Patrick Beverley and dropped a winnable game against the Jazz. A good chunk of the team felt ill in that Jazz game, though many will scoff at it being the reason they lost (it might really be part of it though). That Lakers win was still...

The Clippers are 22-10, but have dropped three of their last five games, including two blown leads late to the Thunder and Rockets. Louis and Rob are back to discuss the Clippers' recent struggles, including whether or not a trade could help relieve some of their issues. The two then preview the Clippers' Christmas Day game against the Lakers and tangent into the dichotomy in the NBA between regul...

The Clippers have continued playing, but quite a bit has happened behind the scenes at Clips Nation, with new California Labor Laws causing SB Nation to essentially plan to cut ties with the Clips Nation staff by the end of March. The community is still being run at the old website, but with the plan to transition to a new site called 213Hoops by February. Lucas Hann joins Rob and Shap to go into...

The Clippers lost to the Bulls on Saturday, which means it's time for another episode of #SameOldClippers! Louis and Rob are joined by their first ever guest, Sean Highkin of Bleacher Report, who reported for four years on the Bulls beat. The trio discuss the Bulls-Clippers game, and Sean provides some background for where the Bulls are at in their rebuild and how their team is coming along. Then,...

Thanks for the ring and the W, Raps. Kawhi Leonard showed up in Toronto, shook some hands, and then efficiently helped the Clippers beat the Raptors on the road. Paul George was not greeted with open arms in Indiana, but he put on a virtuoso performance to lead the Clippers in a tough win for a weary Clipper team. After a thud against the prepared Bucks, the Clips have looked really good on this r...

Since the last episode of Same Old Clippers, the Clips have lost twice, which means a double episode of the show. First off, the guys discuss those losses, and what exactly happened that led to the Clippers dropping both games. Then, they segue into Kawhi Leonard's issues, which surprisingly center around his offensive game and inconsistent shooting. From there, they move into a discussion on the...

The Clippers had a pretty good week despite a disappointing loss to the Spurs. The win in Dallas was impressive, with the team pulling away in the second half and never looking back while limiting phenom Luka Doncic in the process. The Memphis win left a lot to be desired and the Spurs loss was brutal to watch, but the team rebounded against the hapless defense of the Washington Wizards to feast f...

What a week that was. Paul George and Kawhi Leonard finally played together, and thrilled in a tightly contested win over the the talented Boston Celtics. They followed that with another thriller against the Rockets and closed the week with a blowout against the Pelicans. To start the week, some old Clipper favorites returned, as the OKC Thunder brought home Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Danilo Gallina...

Paul George is very good at basketball. The Clippers were disappointing record-wise this week and squandered two 4th quarter leads for losses on back to back nights on the road, partly due to the brilliance of opponents Jrue Holiday and James Harden. However, the offense began coming together against the Pelicans and was absolutely rolling against the overwhelmed Atlanta Hawks, led by a hyper effi...
